Questions and instructions

Literal question

How many days a member has stayed away from home during the last 30 days?

Interviewer instructions

The number of days for which the member 'stayed away from home' during the 30 days preceding the date of enquiry should be recorded here. A continuous absence from home for 24 hours will be reckonedas a 'day stayed away.' That is, the entry will be made in completed number of days and any fraction of a day will be ignored. The location of the place where the person stayed while away from his/her own household may also be within the same village/town, hence it may be noted that staying away will not only mean physical absence but also non-participation in food consumption from his/her own household. If the number of days stayed away is found to be zero '00', may be recorded.
